Pees in the brown Koolaid
When I got hired as a part timer in 1987, the job paid 3x the minimum wage. There were 15 other people who applied for my job. UPS did a background check on me. They checked my references and made me pee in a cup. I got the job because I was the best qualified out of those 15 applicants.Our buddy sober up thinks these thief's need health insurance and a larger starting wage.
Today....no background checks or drug screens are done. The only requirement for PT employment is a pulse. UPS is in direct competition with McDonalds for qualified help. So yes...I think that a better starting wage and benefit package would reduce theft by attracting a better class of employee. You get what you pay for.
